Solar Activity
Solar activity was at moderate levels. Region 3638 (S18E03, Cri/beta) was responsible for the strongest event of the period, an M2.2 (R1-Minor) flare at 18/0248 UTC. Newly numbered Region 3647 (S10E12, Dac/beta-delta) resides in the middle of a cluster of sunspots in the SE quadrant. Most of the significant sunspot growth over the past 24 hours is between Region 3647 and Region 3645 (S09E10, Dai/beta). The remaining regions were mostly stable or in gradual decay.
Solar Wind
A weakly enhanced solar wind environment prevailed throughout the period. Total magnetic field strength ranged 4-9 nT. The Bz component was primarily oriented northward. Solar wind speeds were in steady decline through the period, from ~410 km/s to near ~330 km/s by the of the UT day.
Energetic Particle
The greater than 2 MeV electron flux was at normal to moderate levels and the greater than 10 MeV proton flux was at background levels.
